Abuja – Senator Ireti Kingibe has taken a historic step in her commitment to the people of the Federal Capital Territory and Nigeria’s future by joining the African Democratic Congress (ADC). The Senator formally registered as a member of the party on December 18, 2025, at the National Merit House, Maitama, Abuja.
In a statement, Senator Kingibe said, “This move is deliberate, strategic, and driven by conviction. By joining the ADC, I automatically assume leadership responsibility within the party structure in the FCT and nationally, as a coalition partner committed to building a credible, people-centered alternative for governance.”
Kingibe believes her decision strengthens the ADC in the FCT ahead of the February 2026 Area Council elections and positions the party as a serious and growing force towards the 2027 general elections. Kingibe stated, “This development enhances my capacity to advocate more forcefully for the rights, welfare, and aspirations of FCT residents on the national stage.”
The Senator, a civil engineer and legislator, emphasized her commitment to technical governance, evidence-based policymaking, and sustainable development, particularly in infrastructure, housing, urban planning, and FCT’s unique needs. “I remain steadfast in my commitment to represent the FCT with courage, clarity, and competence,” Kingibe affirmed.
